Anyone carrying a Glock 43X?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Carry one everyday , my favorite CCW . 
I use shield  mags . Leather holster on leather belt .  I probally am about as rough on a CCW as it gets . My gun has been dropped several times , still no issues .   Not a fan of the MOS reflex sight  , I took it off .   In my environment it gets dirty very quick . So I just use open sights

I built a custom edc on the PSA Micro Dagger platform. It's a G43x clone. And it has been a great gun! The PSA mags hold 15 rounds. It is currently in my carry rotation.

My wife and I both carry the 43X. If you get a good purchase  and disciplined grip on the G19 and are used to shooting with the Glock grip angle--then the transition to a 43X from a 19 is gravy.  

I upgraded the OE sights with Ameri-glo night sights. Added an extended metal mag release so the firearm could accommodate the Shield 15 round mags. Added a flared mag well and changed the OE trigger to an Apex replacement because Glock stock trigger shoes are continually the worst part of the gun for me no matter the model. 

The size is perfect for CCW and the hand grip allows a good full purchase for a guy like me with sausage fingers-- I also added the Talon grip appliqués. Never had an issue with the Talon tape coming off during multiple high volume fire training events no matter the weather. 

So-- I carry the 43X 90% of the time along with/a spare 15 round mag. The other 10% vacillates between the Sig 365XL w/Romeo 0 red dot and Wilson Combat grip upgrade...and a 1911 CDR.

My grandson just got a Glock 43 for his 21st birthday. Not sure it is a X model. It had 2 holsters, kydex outside and IWB, and 5 magazines with it. His dad purchased it from a co-worker the said he had 950.00 in all of it, and he got it for 600.00. Said previous owner shot 2 boxes of ammo through it. Son in law also got some ammo in the deal. Looked new. I believe it also had an electronic sight of some kind and a under brl mounted flashlight with a green Lazer built in the light. Me think he did well, if you want a Glock.
